Lesson Plan

Serc: Investigating the Effects of Density and Volume of a Cartesian Diver

Curated by ACT

In this lesson, young scholars will investigate why the Cartesian diver dives and rises in a 2 liter bottle. They will also, through their own discovery, come up with a question and then change one variable and record their results. Students will draw a diagram of the experiment and record data collected in their science journals. They will then be expected to discuss their results with the class and write their own findings about what they learned.
